It might be. We didn't go aboard. We did look over the aircraft carrier museum, but not very closely. <br><br>Sounds like a nice trip down and up the coast. If you'd stayed home, you probably would have felt the earthquake. Just as well you were on the road. I'm in Santa Clara this week and my senses are very heightened after that quake yesterday.

During the winter months they move it to the Caribbean and cruise there, mostly to the Bahamas.
